So, the bag portion is sort of terra cotta colored with different color for the two flaps simulating a flower?

They have a skirt on the site w/ the same name as Princess TalksWithHerHands.

I don't know what you thought, but I thought that purse looked like something other than a flower pot. Maybe my mind is in the gutter or I've been seperated to long or something like that.

I was trying to be nice. flirt It didn't look too great to me....I can see what you are talking about. think It does have that look! faint

Before posting or printing photographs, people should really take a look at the photo.....It is a somewhat obscene purse.


Perhaps THIS would be a better project?

...if your mind is in the gutter...so is mine! :RollieEyes: or as the saying goes...if that's a flower pot...I am the Queen of England..LOL!

Yeah....I figured as much...Cind bringing up the 'other project' to match...LOL!

Thanks for the laugh, ladies...I really needed one today.

You and Cind seem a match 'made in heaven'...with what seems to be a common interest in...'needles' wink

My daughter and I joke that we share needles. rotflmao

I'm thinking I may need a road trip to see Chai but that would be an expensive SEX trip.

As I've said before and will say again - One can NEVER have enough stash. One never knows when an inspirational moment will strike (witness the "womb") so you MUST have stash on hand to create these little lovlies. I mean, what if that person who so creatively did that piece had no fiber available when she conceived the idea? Well, I say "what a tragedy." It could happen you know.

So Cinder, make the road trip. We would love to have you visit us.

Luna, glad you could find some humor in our posts. If you would like, I'll make that flower pot bag for you. I'm sure you would be the envy of all your friends..... grin

You just never know what some women might knit....such as this or this or maybe some of these!!!

There are some women (or men) out there who are uh.....what shall I say.......creative? Free thinking? Uninhibited? Unfettered? Oversexed?

Hey Chai,

How are you girl. I got your phone message. I'm not able to check the minutes on my phone as WH put a block on it, so I am being careful with the minutes for a few more days.

I hope you are doing ok. You have such strength and your sense of humor is the bright spot in my life. Don't ever loose that.

Your comment on no purse and nurse.... PRICELESS...

Ever think about stand up comedy?

After everything that I've learned through this ordeal, some facts and thoughts stick in my head:

1. 75% of second marriages fail, 85%of third, and 96% of 4th!
2. I don't want to be anyones 2nd or 3rd anything
3. I took vows to be married only once
4. Another marriage would bring x-wives, step children, etc.
5. I'm 54. Would have no history with someone else
6. Wouldn't really know their history or background
7. I don't want to be a nurse or a purse.....

So I guess "imagining" brings bad thoughts. Of course, I don't have to get married again. I guess I could just date huh?

I'm with you, Chai...I had/have NO PLANS of ever remarrying for ALL of the reasons above....that's why there's the GENTLEMAN CALLER...that's what I was IMAGINING...actually that HELPED me..

You see, even though my H and I are now reconciled, I was resolved that it was not going to happen by the time I went to PLAN B. I was FINISHED unless he came back to me. So, even though the time in B was relatively SHORT, the PAIN was just as INTOLERABLE as the PAIN many of you are feeling. I NEVER GOT OVER THE PAIN during that time..so I used any approach that I could think of to deal with it. I HATED being ALONE and knew I would have to have some MALE COMPANIONSHIP.

as for #7 above, there's a chance that one day I may be a NURSE of this 55 yo man who refuses to go to a doctor...I dutifully pay his longterm care insurance.. :RollieEyes:


I made it happen..a joyful life..filled with peace, contentment, happiness and fabulocity.

OK Mimi, you convinced me to do a little with the ol' imagination.

I'm going to imagine that I meet a very rich guy with a dead wife. He was married many years and was faithful. AND, he has no kids. He's charming, well educated, thoughtful, and loves all of the things that I love. It's a match made on Wall St.

Wow, I do feel better now grin

Queenie girl!!! Give me a call when you have minutes.
